The core values that ground our work, guide our decisions, and connect us together:
Pragmatic Optimism
Excellence without Ego
Proactive Collaboration
The Linear Generator is unlike any other generator technology on the market - it is a system that couples a chemical reaction and thermally-driven expansion directly to a linear motor for energy generation and control - called the Adaptive Pressure Cycle. This puts the controls and power electronics at the center of the design, and we’re looking for a leader who can thrive in a dynamic environment with many systems-level tradeoffs to balance. It is important that they have a deep understanding in many of the critical areas: power electronics / motors / inverters, PCBA designs / mixed-signal routing, low-noise analog signal conditioning and high-EMI environments.
They must also have significant practical experience bringing power electronics to market, with a good understanding of high volume manufacturing and attaining high quality and reliability at low cost.
This person must be an excellent leader who personifies our core values and can grow the team to accomplish our goals. This position reports to the SVP of Engineering, and is expected to be onsite at least 60% of the time.
